Selena arranged work with a prominent London QC not to break up his marriage--the way her mother had once tried--but to get to know her father secretly so that she could put her past behind her.

She hadn't anticipated Piers Gresham's interference. "I don't know what game you're playing," he announced, "but my uncle's married. You won't find him a pushover. He was nearly caught that way once before."

Love, Selena knew, made one vulnerable. But to abandon all caution for a man who'd reject her because of her past was foolhardy!
